He did it because he knew it was for the best. If you look at the opposition it seems that the whole of the US turn utilitarian!_________________Since the bible and the church are obviously mistaken about where we came from, how can we trust them with where we're going?

100 dead protesters in Ukraine. A demonstrator had his mouth sewn shut by the European Stasi. Another victim was made to sit on fireworks by the police. wildhorse's main love interest, Vlad the KGBer, won't be happy until the return of the Soviet Union and the Cold War.

LOL Europe._________________Irony is asking government to fix the problems it caused

This time, they weren't proactive enough. The world's attention is already focused there, and they've lost the initiative to frame what's going on. They've been cockblocked, just like Obama got cockblocked on his WMDs in Syria, although he wasn't smart enough not to try it anyway.

Also, the rebels chose this time (during the Olympics) to act out specifically to minimize the possibility of Russian intervention. Putin is personally very concerned with using this opportunity to restore Russia's status on the world stage. Hosting an Olympics while invading a former satellite state and crushing rebellion wouldn't look very good._________________Deja Moo: the feeling that you've heard this bull before

Plus it would look bad while the Russians were hosting the Olympics.

It would be if Hitler had invaded Poland during the Olympics._________________Irony is asking government to fix the problems it caused

Well, I did hear that the Euroführer Merkel had decided to have a meeting about the situation in Ukraine, with other European sub-Führers, and send a strongly-worded letter or something. So at least that's something.

The meeting starts with smalltalk. Guantánamo, Oblabla's addiction to cigarettes – all in English. He will be pissed. Then the discussion begins in German and Russian. Merkel speaks Russian, Putin speaks German. So does the Ukrainian delegation. Oblabla hears everything and understands nothing.
